This photograph was taken by Nicholson Museum curator William J Woodhouse in Greece between 1890 and 1935.
Can you help us catalogue the Woodhouse photographic archive? Contribute by adding tags and answering the following questions in the comments below:
•What do you see? Write a brief description for this image.
•Where was this photograph taken?
•Can you find the geo co-ordinates (latitude and longitude) of this exact place? Let us know by linking to the google maps or add the co-ordinates in your comment.
•Do you know what year this photograph was taken?
About the archive:
The Nicholson Museum holds over 1800 glass-plate negatives taken by Woodhouse while in Greece in 1890s and early 1900s. A small portion of the archive also includes photographs of his family in the Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia. The collection documents important archaeological sites, significant landscapes of the Greek mainland, contemporary buildings and the people he met along the way. His archive is a rich resource capturing many sites pre-archaeological excavation and before modern industrial development. Some of the photographs were published by Woodhouse in his book 'Aetolia: its geography, topography, and antiquities' published in 1897. His desire to capture Greece on 'film', was simply put in his introduction: "History only attains its full value by borrowing actuality from geography and topography". The archive shows his love not only for the sites but also for the people and spirit of Greece.
About the project:
We are asking you to contribute to our documentation of this collection and assist us with the identification of the hundreds of different monuments and places in Greece. The title of each photograph will include the museum registration number (NM2007.##.##) and may already include a place name where museum staff or Woodhouse himself have titled the image.
All of our flikr contributors will be acknowledged when the collection is published through our online collections at the completion of the project.

Traceries of the east window designed by Sir Ninian Comper, c1950, also known as 'the Bride's Window' after newly weds at the church following the War were asked to contribute funds towards it's installation.
Holy Trinity would have been the star attraction in any other town or city, it is a majestic cruciform 15th century Perpendicular church with a tapering central tower and spire, the second of Coventry's famous 'Three Spires'. However it has always been overshadowed by larger neighbours, having been encircled by no less than three separate cathedrals through it's history, a unique distinction! Holy Trinity was founded by the monks of the adjoining priory to act as a parish church for it's lay tenants, thus it is ironic that it has long outlived the parent building.
The earliest part is the north porch, which dates from the 13th century, but the majority of the building dates from a more ambitious phase in 15th century Perpendicular style. The 15th century rebuilding has given us the present cruciform arrangement with small transepts and extra chapels on the north side giving an overall roughly rectangular footprint. These chapels were some of many in the church that served the city's separate guilds in medieval times.
The church has gone through much restoration, most notably the rebuilding of it's spire after it was blown down in a storm in 1665. The east end of the chancel was extended in 1786 (in sympathetic style) and much of the exterior was refaced in the early 19th century in then fashionable Bath stone (which clashes with the original red sandstone).
The church luckily escaped major damage during the Coventry Blitz in 1940, largely thanks to the vigilance of Canon Clitheroe and his team of firewatchers who spent a perilous night on the roof tackling incendaries. The main loss was the Victorian stained glass in the east and west windows, which were replaced with much more fetching glass in the postwar restoration.
The most recent restoration involved the uncovering of the 15th century Doom painting over the chancel arch in 2004. Hidden under blackened varnish since it's rediscovery in the early Victorian period, it has now been revealed to be one of the most complete and important medieval Last Judgement murals in the country. There is further painting contemporary with this on the exquisite nave ceiling, painted a beautiful dusty blue with large kneeling angels flanking coats of arms on every rafter.
There are only a handful of monuments and most of the furnishings date from G.G.Scott's 1850s restoration (as does the magnificent vaulted ceiling high above the crossing) but there are some notable medieval survivals in the rare stone pulpit and the brass eagle lectern, both 15th century, along with a fine set of misericords originating from the former Whitefriars monastery church. Just a few fragments of medieval glass survive in the north west chapel.
The church is happily normally open and welcoming to visitors every day.

The 2030 Agenda calls on all countries to use trade to create a more sustainable, inclusive, and resilient world. We must ensure that the global trading system actively contributes to sustainability. Trade policies offer an opportunity to promote a broad shift in production and consumption that helps consumers to make better choices.
The European Union-Mercosur (Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay) free trade agreement, recently announced after 20 years of negotiations, has not yet been ratified. If ratified, it would represent the largest trade deal struck by both the EU and Mercosur bringing together 779 million of people, 24 trillion dollars of GDP and covering 18 million of square kilometers. Representing a quarter of the global GDP and could also presage a redistribution of agricultural market shares in the EU, the world’s second largest agricultural import market, for US-based exporters.
The agreement may serve as a model for future deals, making it critical to get this one right. This discussion will consider fundamental questions about “greening” of the EU-Mercosur agreement:
How will the agreement impact trade in goods?
How will it protect standards, including environmental standards?
Can it promote sustainable farming in both regions?
How will it contribute to the fight against climate change?
Will commitments on environmental protection be enforceable?

The whole picture - up close and personal
I worked early into this morning on this piece, and actually hesitated sending it because i have been quite unsure about showing my art ("Are you serious?!" those who know me and my work may ask) perhaps it's because I'm going through some changes, both personal and creative. Looking back on these shots/series, i am reminded about the power of images, of photography, and how when used as a vehicle for transmitting important information, can be a powerful tool for change and transformation.
I still feel like the woman on the left sometimes. I look back on this whole set of images I posted back in 2005, and realize that she is and always be a part of me. Because when the medications are not adjusted properly, when i think about the battle my mother is waging against cancer, the loss of my grandmother a few months ago, her sad blue eyes and the helplessness and desperation in them touches me, and makes me realize that perhaps I'm on this difficult leg of my creative journey to push through uncertainty, face up to adversity, and trust that i will emerge a stronger and a more well defined person.
So if anybody will be in the gallery area, please let me know - take a photo of my postcard, send me one if you can; because if I can't be there in body, i will be there in spirit.

"Malcolm Cowley, the only child of a homeopathic physician, was born in Belasco, Pennsylvania, on 24th August, 1898. A successful school student, Cowley won a scholarship to Harvard in 1915. While at university Cowley contributed to the Harvard Advocate and attended lectures by Amy Lowell.
In 1917 Cowley left Harvard to drive munitions trucks for the American Field Service in France. While on the Western Front Cowley wrote articles about the First World War for The Pittsburgh Gazette.
Cowley returned to the United States in 1918 and the following year married the artist, Peggy Baird. He continued with his studies and graduated from Harvard in 1920. For the next few years he wrote poetry and book reviews for The Dial and the New York Evening Post.
In 1921 Cowley moved to France and continued his studies at the University of Montpellier. He also found work with avant-garde literary magazines such as Broom and Secession. While in France he became friendly with American expatriates such as Gertrude Stein, Ernest Hemingway and Ezra Pound.
Cowley returned to the United States in August 1923 and went to live in Greenwich Village where he became close friends with the poet Hart Crane. As well as writing poetry Cowley found work as an advertising copywriter with Sweet's Architectural Catalogue. He also translated seven books from French into English.
In 1929 Cowley published Blue Juniata, his first book of poems. Later that year he replaced Edmund Wilson as literary editor of the New Republic.
Cowley's marriage broke up in 1931 and Peggy went to live with Hart Crane. This ended in tragedy when Crane committed suicide by jumping from the ship Orizaba on 27th April 1932. Two months later Cowley married Muriel Maurer.
Coming under the influence of Theodore Dreiser, Cowley became increasingly involved in radical politics. In 1932 Cowley joined Mary Heaton Vorse, Edmund Wilson and Waldo Frank as union-sponsored observers of the miners' strikes in Kentucky. The men's lives were threatened by the mine owners and Frank was badly beaten up. The following year Cowley published Exile's Return in 1933. The book was largely ignored and sold only 800 copies in the first twelve months.
In 1935 Cowley and other left-wing writers established the League of American Writers. Other members included Erskine Caldwell, Archibald MacLeish, Upton Sinclair, Clifford Odets, Langston Hughes, Carl Sandburg, Carl Van Doren, David Ogden Stewart, John Dos Passos, Lillian Hellman and Dashiell Hammett.
Cowley was appointed vice president of the League of American Writers and over the next few years Cowley was involved in several campaigns, including attempts to persuade the United States government to support the republicans in the Spanish Civil War. However, he resigned in 1940 because he felt the organization was under the control of the American Communist Party.
In 1941 President Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed Archibald MacLeish as head of the Office of Facts and Figures. MacLeish recruited Cowley as his deputy. This decision soon resulted in right-wing journalists such as Whittaker Chambers and Westbrook Pegler writing articles pointing out Cowley's left-wing past. One member of Congress, Martin Dies of Texas, accused Cowley of having connections to 72 communist or communist-front organizations.
MacLeish came under pressure from J. Edgar Hoover, head of the FBI, to sack Cowley. In January 1942, MacLeish replied that the FBI agents needed a course of instruction in history. "Don't you think it would be a good thing if all investigators could be made to understand that Liberalism is not only not a crime but actually the attitude of the President of the United States and the greater part of his Administration?" In March 1942 Cowley, vowing never again to write about politics, resigned from the Office of Facts and Figures.
Cowley now became literary adviser to Viking Press. He now began to edit the selected works of important American writers. Viking Portable editions by Cowley included Ernest Hemingway (1944), William Faulkner (1946) andNathaniel Hawthorne (1948).
In 1949 Cowley returned to the political scene by testifying at the second Alger Hiss trial. His testimony contradicted the main evidence supplied by Whittaker Chambers.
Cowley published a revised edition of Exile's Return in 1951. This time the book sold much better. He also published The Literary Tradition (1954) and edited a new edition of Leaves of Grass (1959) by Walt Whitman. This was followed by Black Cargoes, A History of the Atlantic Slave Trade (1962), Fitzgerald and the Jazz Age (1966), Think Back on Us (1967), Collected Poems (1968), Lesson of the Masters (1971), A Second Flowering (1973), The Dream of the Golden Mountains (1980). Malcolm Cowley died on 28th March 1989."

"Margarite Frances Baird was also known as Peggy Baird, Peggy Johns and Peggy Cowley. She was a landscape painter, but was most significant for her participation in the literary and artistic life of her day. She was married to Orrick Johns about 1915, traveled with him to Europe. During this period, she had a "fling" with Eugene O'Neill.
Peggy Baird Johns was a friend and correspondent of Katherine Anne Porter and Dorothy Day. Baird was part of the women's suffrage movement. In 1917, she invited Dorothy Day to join the National Woman's Party. They were jailed for their protests. She remained friends with Day and visited her at various times throughout the years. She later married Malcolm Cowley and was divorced from him in 1931.
Once estranged from Malcolm Cowley -- though not yet divorced -- she moved to Mexico, where her long friendship with poet Hart Crane turned into Crane's first and last (documented) heterosexual affair. This affair has since become a major point of interest for Crane scholars -- particularly for those reading him with an eye toward his sexuality -- as his engagement with heterosexual life is a determining theme in his last major poem, "The Broken Tower". Appearing at moments to be a highly symbolic affirmation of their relationship, as well as a denial of his homosexual past (the 'broken tower' can be read as a defeated phallus), the poem was written just months before his suicide by water.
Baird was with him on the boat returning them to New York, and she figures briefly, but poignantly, in the events leading up to his death. Almost thirty years later, she wrote about this period in an article for Venture, "The Last Days of Hart Crane.""

Seminar audience hears low levels of physical activity in Ireland are contributing to serious long term health problems
Delegates attending a public health seminar today learned that low levels of physical activity are contributing to long term health problems. The comments were made by Professor James Sallis, Director of Active Living Research and Professor at San Diego State University and Ms Teresa Lavin, Institute of Public Health in Ireland (IPH), at a seminar jointly hosted by IPH and the UKCRC Centre of Excellence for Public Health (Northern Ireland).
The seminar looked at why levels of physical activity are low in Ireland. It focused on how the built environment influences opportunities for being active.
Ms Lavin said: “Enhancing opportunities for physical activity is essential. Across Ireland levels of physical activity are low which has many implications for public health. While there are many reasons for low levels of physical activity one important factor is how the built environment is designed and maintained – this in turn facilitates how we move around our environment.
“We need to create more roads and pathways suited to cycling and walking as well as quality green spaces to encourage people to take physical exercise. We need to locate shops and services – such as schools – nearer to housing schemes and ensure road systems within these estates are engineered to reduce car dependency.”
Ms Lavin continued: “A recent IPH study forecasts a dramatic 40% increase in the number of people living with hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke and diabetes in the Republic of Ireland by 2020. It is essential we reverse this trend and one way is by creating environments which are conducive to physical activity such as walking and cycling.
“To enable this to happen, there is a real need for intersectoral action – involving public health specialists, local authorities, developers and construction professionals such as architects, engineers and planners – to enhance opportunities for physical activity in the built environment across the population and especially for vulnerable groups.
“For example, in Ireland, half as many girls aged 15-17 as boys of the same age are likely to exercise four or more times weekly. Unfortunately, this trend continues through to adulthood and we need to develop specific strategies to tackle this issue.”
Professor Sallis has pioneered an extensive research programme into the environmental and policy influences on physical activity, nutrition and obesity in the United States and said: “Physical activity is a key risk factor for chronic disease; other high risk factors include poverty, unemployment, the environment, smoking, alcohol consumption and diet. The reality is that these factors are distributed unevenly across society. Ensuring that all neighbourhoods have safe and attractive places for physical activity and have shops that sell affordable healthy foods is one way to reduce these inequalities.”
Dr Mark Tully, UKCRC Centre of Excellence for Public Health (NI) who is leading a large research project on the benefits of green space to health and wellbeing said: “The visit of Prof Sallis to Ireland is very timely. We have been inspired by his research to continue our efforts to develop research into how we can help increase levels of physical activity through designing more attractive environments that support the messages our health professionals are promoting.”

I always look forward to the launch of the four Wentworth seasonal ranges - and also to contributing to their Xmas choices via a questionnaire (although I don't always spot the opportunity). These are my top colourful choices for Xmas 2021 season.
Left: Wentworth 250pc Rachel Arbuckle's 12 Days of Christmas Series - Three French Hens & Four Calling Birds. In 2021 we have an entry for 'Six Geese a Laying' in Rachel Arbuckle's 250pc series with dropouts, The Twelve Days of Christmas. I'm a bit behind with this, having only Partridge and Turtle Doves. I intend to buy French Hens and Calling Birds, both of which I like more than Five Gold Rings, and mix them together as a 1000pc jigsaw. The scale of the designs of the first four are compatible, but the later members of the series will necessarily have smaller items and not mix as well.
Centre Top: Wentworth North Wind by Russian artist Natalia Klimova. An intriguing image with whimsies taken from it, available in 240pc & 500pc.
Lower Centre: Wentworth Road to Bethlehem by Jane Tattersfield, religious whimsy cut & available in 240pc & 500pc. These colours really zing and I like the design if I could pick it up second hand at a reasonable price.
Top Right: Wentworth Hanukkah in the Magic Garden by Israeli artist Elena Kortliarker, whimsy cuts with Jewish religious symbols available in 250p & 500pc sizes. I liked this one last year so I'm glad I have another chance to buy it for its glowing colours and lovely patterns.
Lower Right: Wentworth Tessellation design 'The Puzzle That Will Wind You Up', with one or multiple-piece cuckoo clock shapes. Again all three sizes are available 36pc MDZ11, 252pc MDW6 and 540pc MDT9. I'm glad that Wentworth are still offering the double size tessellations, although I don't like this image as much as the Nutcracker one.
If you missed examples of the old snowflake cut from around 2004 you could try the oval shaped 206pc 'Joyeux Noel' by Hello Angel, which uses an oval shaped version of that cut with it's trefoil-knobbed pieces. The image shows colourful Christmas tree decorations against a turquoise background with delicate snowflakes.

Bigshot Toyworks contributed character development and design, as well as digital modeling for the "Salty" character in this new ad for Knorr Sidekicks. The clip was animated by the fine folks at Sons & Daughters, directed by David Hicks, and commissioned by DDB Canada for Knorr. We're thrilled to have been involved in such a quality project! As you can see, everyone's hard work produced a truly quality spot for a happy client.
In 1912, the Fort Worth Stock Yard Company built brick and steel fireproof buildings to replace wooden horse and mule barns destroyed by fire in 1911. The wide space between the building spawned the nickname "Mule Alley." During World War I, the Fort Worth Stock Yard Company was a major supplier of horses and mules to the war effort. The Fort Worth Stock Yard was the largest horse and mule market in the world. The former barns are contributing property in the Fort Worth Stockyards Historic District listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Jeffrey Mayer asked me to contribute to Marie Antoinette; Styling the 18th Century Superstar, I happily contributed art direction and 10 original artworks to his book
"Written to accompany the High Fashion museum exhibition 'Marie Antoinette; Styling the 18th Century Superstar', created by stylist and fashion designer Jeffrey C. Mayer for the I.M. Pei designed Everson Museum of Art in Syracuse, New York. This book discusses the style impact that Marie Antoinette had on fashion in the 18th century, and how those style aesthetics can be applied to 20th and 21st-century fashion. The book is filled with photos by photographer Stephen Sartori, and styled by Jeffrey Mayer, using mannequins by Adele Rootstein and Patina V to depict vignettes inspired by the anything but average life of this young queen of France showcasing American and European couture from the 1950's to the present, including work by Valentino, Chanel, Balenciaga, Norell and Scaasi. The layout was designed by graphic artist Todd Conover who takes the reader on an elegant journey through this eclectic look at the aesthetics of 18th century fashion.Also included is an overview of the fashion sense of the other Austrian 18th century Superstar, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, as seen through the Mozart family letters and discussed by music and fashion historian Carolyn Mayer."
This photograph was taken by Nicholson Museum curator William J Woodhouse in Greece between 1890 and 1935.
Can you help us catalogue the Woodhouse photographic archive? Contribute by adding tags and answering the following questions in the comments below:
•What do you see? Write a brief description for this image.
•Where was this photograph taken?
•Can you find the geo co-ordinates (latitude and longitude) of this exact place? Let us know by linking to the google maps or add the co-ordinates in your comment.
•Do you know what year this photograph was taken?
About the archive:
The Nicholson Museum holds over 1800 glass-plate negatives taken by Woodhouse while in Greece in 1890s and early 1900s. A small portion of the archive also includes photographs of his family in the Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia. The collection documents important archaeological sites, significant landscapes of the Greek mainland, contemporary buildings and the people he met along the way. His archive is a rich resource capturing many sites pre-archaeological excavation and before modern industrial development. Some of the photographs were published by Woodhouse in his book 'Aetolia: its geography, topography, and antiquities' published in 1897. His desire to capture Greece on 'film', was simply put in his introduction: "History only attains its full value by borrowing actuality from geography and topography". The archive shows his love not only for the sites but also for the people and spirit of Greece.
About the project:
We are asking you to contribute to our documentation of this collection and assist us with the identification of the hundreds of different monuments and places in Greece. The title of each photograph will include the museum registration number (NM2007.##.##) and may already include a place name where museum staff or Woodhouse himself have titled the image.
All of our flikr contributors will be acknowledged when the collection is published through our online collections at the completion of the project.
These figurines contribute to the architectural detail on this Central Avenue building. I hope someone can save this artistic structure.
